so i think maybe they were playing defense. >> let me ask you a question, mayor. they closed down the city of boston, all of it, they closed down businesses, universities. granted, this was a horrendous attack, but even after 9-11, you didn't close this city down. i'm wondering whether they went overboard and then when they said okay, you can go out and stretch your legs, and then they find the guy is in the backyard of somebody in watertown. why shut down an entire city? >> bob, i think they could have made that call either way. i'm not sure if i was in their situation i wouldn't have made the same call. here you have a shootout in the middle of the night. you have got a guy on the loose. you have no idea where you'll find him. you could find him in the middle of boston commons or anywhere. you know when you find him there is president-elect obama going to be a massive shootout and you don't want to see ten kids get killed on the street in the middle of that shootout. was in an excess of caution? yes. can understand why they did it? yes. i also think there was an
